Mombetsu Race 11

1200

Prize Money: $15,100

PINK GOLD (2) brings the strongest exposed form after running third in a 2yo Open at Sapporo, beaten just over a length by World Angel despite starting at big odds. That reads well for this 2yo COND, and she also has a Mombetsu win in the book, so she deserves top billing. SIRINDHORN (9) is the danger with the most recent win, having scored here by a neck from Dream Passion two weeks ago, though she must prove that long-odds spike was no one-off. A SHIN FREUDE (3) has been admirably consistent, winning here by half a length after a previous placing behind Cream Pan, and that reliability keeps him right in the race. FIRE PATTERN (1) is unbeaten after beating Wilfred on debut at Mombetsu, but the rise from 1000m to 1200m is the key test after a two-month break.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after making a polished debut at Mombetsu over 1000m, scoring by a length and a half from Wilfred as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. She settled just off the lead, moved into it smoothly and fought on well, so barrier one gives her a suitable platform. The rise to 1200m is the new question, but the debut win gives her genuine minor-money appeal.

Comments

Produced the standout recent run when third in a 2yo Open at Sapporo, beaten just over a length by World Angel after starting at big odds and finishing powerfully. She had also charged home at Mombetsu two runs back when fourth, albeit beaten nine lengths, so the pattern says she is racing with purpose. A prior track win and a placing at this distance add substance, making her the runner to beat.

Comments

Arrives in reliable form after leading throughout at Mombetsu last start and beating Del Piero by half a length when near the top of betting. The run prior, he was third behind Cream Pan and beaten five and a half lengths after failing to quicken, so the latest win was a useful response. With a win and two placings from three starts, he looks a solid place hope again.

Returns from a two-month break after a plain sixth at Mombetsu, beaten six lengths by Kazu Dream after looming and failing to finish it off. His previous fourth here was similar, beaten four lengths by A Shin Ultrun after not sustaining the run. A Mombetsu win is on the page, but he is unplaced in two starts at the distance and needs a clear lift.

Comments

Made the right start to his career at Mombetsu, winning by two lengths from Ray Sprint after being near the top of an open market. The closing stages were encouraging, with a neat turn of foot and something in hand at the finish. This asks for another step against deeper exposed form, but the debut win was professional enough to keep him in the place mix.

Failed to build on the debut win when eighth at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 14 lengths by Mad Secret after having the job ahead and making little impression. That was a sharp drop from her first-up success over 1000m, where she beat Lucky Daughter by three lengths. She has a track win, but the latest effort leaves plenty to prove.

Worked home from an impossible-looking spot when fourth at Mombetsu last start, but was still beaten just over six lengths by Mad Secret as an outside chance in the betting. He had won on debut by a neck from Sanyo Captain as a short odds-on favourite, so there is some ability there. The task is converting that late work into a more threatening performance.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing seventh at Mombetsu, beaten just over nine lengths by Sellout Crowd when at long odds and never a serious chance. The start prior was no stronger, beaten over 11 lengths by the same winner after only battling from near the pace. She has already been beaten by Pink Gold at Mombetsu and needs a sharp turnaround.

Comments

Delivered a big form turnaround at Mombetsu two weeks ago, charging home to beat Dream Passion by a neck at long odds. That followed a sixth to Radio Girl, beaten five and a half lengths after giving away too much start, so the pattern still carries some risk. Proven at this track and distance and effective with Shoma Kanayama aboard, she is a serious threat if she repeats the latest run.
